Ordinary points Mike, but they can't be seperated from their base plate cos the pivot pin's rivetted over, so the points themselves can't be slid off.
The distributor drive also drives the oil pump, so we had to take the drive from the bottom of the Mallory dizzy & adapt it to fit your one. Worked nicely.

Ah well, we'll bung a new set in anyway mate. I really appreciate you sending the dizzy down. Mallory dual point set-ups are supposed to be the best you can fit, but we had endless problems with our particular one. I know I'm a mechanical dunce, but at least with your fully mechanical jobbie fitted, I stand a chance of a roadside bodge if it ever packs up.  |

Yup, that's Gav's model A. Of the ones we know of, racing to beat the test deadline, no-one's passed first time yet.

bit of a small set back today.me and Kev went to sort the starting out on pop.Kev changed the points. i connected the fuel line as the pump got moved.all done started up ticked over set dwell.timing tweaked carb all good so far. then it started to smoke a bit and the cam lifters started to rattle.and it got hot.
checked out the water level was low topped up started up again no still getting to hot. checked fan no power. so hot wired it topped up the water again and started it back up.we let it run for about 20min it seamed fine.just got to find out why it lost power for the fan.but at least it is running sort of ok now just needs fine tuning. were getting there. Kev will be sorting out the brake pressure. now it will tick over and run
